as a real life pokemon maniac, i try to tell other pokemon fans how to pronounce names if they're wrong (its the way I do things). My Friends call Arceus "Ar-see-us" but I played Battle Revolution and it said "Ar-kee-us" or "Ar-Key-us"

EDIT: for some reason as well, one of my friends calls Emboar "Emoboar"?

The funny thing is that I probably don't pronounce lots of Pokemon names correctly because I'm Deaf/Hard of Hearing, but I guess I manage to pronounce some Pokemon names correctly. (ex. Arcanine & Pikachu)

I've always pronounced My-Loh-Tick (rhyming with erotic). I don't think relying on the anime for pronounciations is always right, because one of the episodes pronounced Lee-Noon, but I think it's officially pronounced Lye-Noon.

I say so many of them weird, my friends always pointed it out.Skarmory is apparently 'sk' before the word 'armory.' I always said it with accent on the mor, not the skar.Rayquaza as Ray-Kwau-zuh ('au' is the short o sound, like in 'top')Kyogre as Kie-oh-gruh (I felt so stupid after I was told it is Kie-yo-ger)Not sure if Tepig is Teh-pig or Tee-pig as of right now, but I say Teh-pigFor the longest time I though Phanpy was spelled phanphy, so I said fanfee until I actually read it.

Sometimes when your reading stuff off the internet or in a book and you can't hear the pronounciation and you haven't got anyone to speak out loud the word to then you can become accustomed to an unussual way of saying something and if someone you say it to doesn't know the real pronounciation they become accustomed to it.

I used to always say hi-ra-gaa-nuh and ka-ta-kaa-nuh, though all 'A's should be pronounced the same.

When Jimmy Carr first saw the word 'chav' (I don't know if they have theat word in America) he thought it was pronounced shaa-v in a posh way and said they sounded like very nice people.
